oTranCe is not a cloud-based SaaS platform nor it is bound to any hosting platform. oTranCe can just be used as a free and libre open source software, published under GPLv2 and made for building up the translator community for your software project from scratch.

Hence, oTranCe comes without any setup, license or transaction costs. It is simple to install, well documented, based on Zend Framework and easy to update nonetheless you made changes. If you need more than the importer-plugins provided already, just write your own interface (you’re welcome to contribute it ;))

Other goodies:

import the already translated language files

use a Google API key to get translation proposals

export your project files to any SVN or to GitHub, enrich other files there and port them back to the built-in file browser. Set your project’s language files under version control to benefit from the latest translations made.
